GIT-MERGETOOL(1)                  Git Manual                  GIT-MERGETOOL(1)

NAME
       git-mergetool - Run merge conflict resolution tools to resolve merge
       conflicts
SYNOPSIS
       git mergetool [--tool=<tool>] [-y | --[no-]prompt] [<file>...]

DESCRIPTION
       Use git mergetool to run one of several merge utilities to resolve
       merge conflicts. It is typically run after git merge.
       If one or more <file> parameters are given, the merge tool program will
       be run to resolve differences on each file (skipping those without
       conflicts). Specifying a directory will include all unresolved files in
       that path. If no <file> names are specified, git mergetool will run the
       merge tool program on every file with merge conflicts.
OPTIONS
       -t <tool>, --tool=<tool>
           Use the merge resolution program specified by <tool>. Valid values
           include emerge, gvimdiff, kdiff3, meld, vimdiff, and tortoisemerge.
           Run git mergetool --tool-help for the list of valid <tool>
           settings.
           If a merge resolution program is not specified, git mergetool will
           use the configuration variable merge.tool. If the configuration
           variable merge.tool is not set, git mergetool will pick a suitable
           default.
           You can explicitly provide a full path to the tool by setting the
           configuration variable mergetool.<tool>.path. For example, you can
           configure the absolute path to kdiff3 by setting
           mergetool.kdiff3.path. Otherwise, git mergetool assumes the tool is
           available in PATH.
           Instead of running one of the known merge tool programs, git
           mergetool can be customized to run an alternative program by
           specifying the command line to invoke in a configuration variable
           mergetool.<tool>.cmd.
           When git mergetool is invoked with this tool (either through the -t
           or --tool option or the merge.tool configuration variable) the
           configured command line will be invoked with $BASE set to the name
           of a temporary file containing the common base for the merge, if
           available; $LOCAL set to the name of a temporary file containing
           the contents of the file on the current branch; $REMOTE set to the
           name of a temporary file containing the contents of the file to be
           merged, and $MERGED set to the name of the file to which the merge
           tool should write the result of the merge resolution.
           If the custom merge tool correctly indicates the success of a merge
           resolution with its exit code, then the configuration variable
           mergetool.<tool>.trustExitCode can be set to true. Otherwise, git
           mergetool will prompt the user to indicate the success of the
           resolution after the custom tool has exited.
       --tool-help
           Print a list of merge tools that may be used with --tool.
       -y, --no-prompt
           Don't prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution
           program.
       --prompt
           Prompt before each invocation of the merge resolution program. This
           is the default behaviour; the option is provided to override any
           configuration settings.
TEMPORARY FILES
       git mergetool creates *.orig backup files while resolving merges. These
       are safe to remove once a file has been merged and its git mergetool
       session has completed.
       Setting the mergetool.keepBackup configuration variable to false causes
       git mergetool to automatically remove the backup as files are
       successfully merged.
